How to verify a Summoner

Verify your League of Legends Summoner to show that you are the owner of the account. (Required to play in the Daily Ladder.)

You can verify your Summoner (League of Legends game account) in two ways:

  • Play any kind of game with a Tournament Code on Challengermode
  • Change your Summoner Icon temporarily as explained below.

In other words, if you have already played a Tournament or Challenge on Challengermode with your Summoner it will already be verified

When you connect a new Summoner you will be given the option to verify it. Alternatively, you can also verify it the first time you play in the Daily Ladder

Verify Manually

To verify your Summoner, you will need to temporarily change your Summoner Icon (the profile picture of your League of Legends Summoner) as explained on the left.

Open your League of Legends client

1. Click on your Summoner Icon in the top right corner of the League of Legends client.

2. Change the icon to the one shown on Challengermode (example above).

3. Save and wait a few seconds

You can now go back to Challengermode and click Verify. The system will then detect the changed icon and verify that you are the owner of the League of Legends account.

You can change back to the old Summoner Icon you used before, should you want to do so (it won't remove the verification).

How do I know my Summoner is verified?

A checkmark will be displayed next to the verified Summoner.


Running into other issues, or do you have additional questions? Feel free to chat with us by clicking (?) on Challengermode.
